1 Unto the messenger of the congregacion of Ephesus wryte: These thynges sayth he that holdeth the vii. starres in his right honde and walketh in the myddes of the vii. golden candlestyckes
エペソに在る教會の使に書きおくれ。「右の手に七つの星を持つ者、七つの金の燈臺の間に歩むもの斯く言ふ、
2 I knowe thy workes and thy labour and thy pacience and howe thou cannest not forbeare the which are evyll: and examinedst them which saye they are Apostles and are not: and hast founde them lyars
われ汝の行爲と勞と忍耐とを知る。また汝が惡しき者を忍び得ざることと、自ら使徒と稱へて使徒にあらぬ者どもを試みて、その虚僞なるを見あらはししこととを知る。
3 and dydest wasshe thy self. And hast pacience: and for my names sake hast labored and hast not faynted.
なんぢは忍耐を保ち、我が名のために忍びて倦まざりき。
4 Neverthelesse I have sumwhat agaynst the for thou haste lefte thy fyrst love.
されど我なんぢに責むべき所あり、なんぢは初の愛を離れたり。
5 Remember therfore from whence thou art fallen and repent and do the fyrst workes. Or elles I wyll come vnto the shortly and will remove thy candlestyke out of his place excepte thou repent.
さればなんぢ何處より墜ちしかを思へ、悔改めて初の行爲をなせ、然らずして若し悔改めずば、我なんぢに到り汝の燈臺を、その處より取除かん。
6 But this thou haste because thou hatest ye dedes of the Nicolaitans which dedes I also hate.
されど汝に取るべき所あり、汝はニコライ宗の行爲を憎む、我も之を憎むなり。
7 Lett him yt hath eares heare what ye sprete sayth vnto the congregacions. To him that overcometh will I geve to eate of the tree of lyfe which is in the myddes of ye paradice of god.
耳ある者は御靈の諸 教會に言ひ給ふことを聽くべし、勝を得る者には、われ神のパラダイスに在る生命の樹の實を食ふことを許さん」
8 And vnto the angell of the congregacion of Smyrna wryte: These thynges sayth he that is fyrst and the laste which was deed and is alive.
スミルナに在る教會の使に書きおくれ。「最先にして最後なる者、死人となりて復 生きし者かく言ふ。
9 I knowe thy workes and tribulacion and poverte but thou art ryche: And I knowe the blaspemy of them whiche call them selves Iewes and are not: but are the congregacio of sathan.
われ汝の艱難と貧窮とを知る――されど汝は富める者なり。我はまた自らユダヤ人と稱へてユダヤ人にあらず、サタンの會に屬く者より汝が譏を受くるを知る。
10 Feare none of thoo thynges which thou shalt soffre. Beholde the devyll shall caste of you into preson to tempte you and ye shall have tribulacion. x. dayes. Be faythfull vnto the deeth and I will geve the a croune of lyfe.
なんぢ受けんとする苦難を懼るな、視よ、惡魔なんぢらを試みんとて、汝らの中の或 者を獄に入れんとす。汝ら十日のあひだ患難を受けん、なんぢ死に至るまで忠實なれ、然らば我なんぢに生命の冠冕を與へん。
11 Let him that hath ears heare what the sprete sayth to the congregacions: He that overcometh shall not be hurte of the seconde deeth.
耳ある者は御靈の諸 教會に言ひ給ふことを聽くべし。勝を得るものは第二の死に害はるることなし」
12 And to the messenger of the congregacion in Pergamos wryte: This sayth he which hath ye sharpe swearde with two edges.

13 I knowe thy workes and where thow dwellest evyn where Sathans seat ys and thou kepest my name and hast not denyed my fayth. And in my dayes Antipas was a faythfull witnes of myne which was slayne amonge you where sathan dwelleth.
われ汝の住むところを知る、彼處にはサタンの座位あり、汝わが名を保ち、わが忠實なる證人アンテパスが、汝 等のうち即ちサタンの住む所にて殺されし時も、なほ我を信ずる信仰を棄てざりき。
14 But I have a fewe thynges agaynst the: yt thou hast there they that mayntayne the doctryne of Balam which taught in balake to put occasion of syn before the chylderne of Israhell that they shulde eate of meate dedicat vnto ydoles and to commyt fornicacion.
されど我なんぢに責むべき一二の事あり、汝の中にバラムの教を保つ者どもあり、バラムはバラクに教へ、彼をしてイスラエルの子孫の前に躓物を置かしめ、偶像に献げし物を食はせ、かつ淫行をなさしめたり。
15 Even so hast thou them that mayntayne the doctryne of the Nicolaytans which thynge I hate.
斯くのごとく汝らの中にもニコライ宗の教を保つ者あり。
16 But be converted or elles I will come vnto the shortly and will fyght agaynste the with thes wearde of my mouth
さらば悔改めよ、然らずば我すみやかに汝に到り、わが口の劍にて彼らと戰はん。
17 Lett him that hath eares heare what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacios: To him that overcommeth will I geve to eate manna that is hyd and will geve him a whyte stone and in the stone a newe name wrytten which no ma knoweth savinge he that receaveth it.

18 And vnto the messenger of the congregacion of Theatira write: This sayth the sonne of god which hath his eyes lyke vnto a flame of fyre whose fete are like brasse:
テアテラに在る教會の使に書きおくれ。「目は焔のごとく、足は輝ける眞鍮の如くなる神の子かく言ふ、
19 I knowe thy workes and thy love service and fayth and thy paciece and thy dedes which are mo at the last then at the fyrste.
われ汝の行爲および汝の愛と信仰と職と忍耐とを知る、又なんぢの初の行爲よりは後の行爲の多きことを知る。
20 Notwitstondinge I have a feawe thynges agaynst the that thou sofferest that woman Iesabell which called her sylfe a prophetes to teache and to deceave my servauntes to make them commyt fornicacion and to eate meates offered vppe vnto ydoles.
されど我なんぢに責むべき所あり、汝はかの自ら預言者と稱へて我が僕を教へ惑し、淫行をなさしめ、偶像に献げし物を食はしむる女イゼベルを容れおけり。
21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornicacion and she repented not.
我かれに悔改むる機を與ふれど、その淫行を悔改むることを欲せず。
22 Beholde I will caste her into a beed and them yt commyt fornicacion wt her into gret adversite excepte they tourne fro their deades.
視よ、我かれを牀に投げ入れん、又かれと共に姦淫を行ふ者も、その行爲を悔改めずば、大なる患難に投げ入れん。
23 And I will kyll her children with deeth. And all the congregacions shall knowe that I am he which searcheth ye reynes and hertes. And I will geve vnto evere one of you accordynge vnto youre workes.
又かれの子供を打ち殺さん、斯くてもろもろの教會は、わが人の腎と心とを究むる者なるを知るべし、我は汝 等おのおのの行爲に隨ひて報いん。
24 Vnto you I saye and vnto other of them of Thiatyra as many as have not this lerninge and which have not knowen the depnes of Satha (as they saye) I will put apo you none other burthe
我この他のテアテラの人にして未だかの教を受けず、所謂サタンの深きところを知らぬ汝らに斯くいふ、我ほかの重を汝らに負はせじ。
25 but yt which ye have alreddy. Holde fast tyll I come
ただ汝 等はその有つところを我が到らん時まで保て。
26 and whosoever overcometh and kepeth my workes vnto the ende to hym will I geve power over nacios
勝を得て終に至るまで我が命ぜしことを守る者には、諸國の民を治むる權威を與へん。
27 and he shall rule them with a rodde of yron: and as the vessels of a potter shall he breake them to shevers. Eve as I receaved of my father
彼は鐵の杖をもて之を治め、土の器を碎くが如くならん、我が父より我が受けたる權威のごとし。
